Fan Motor, Driver Side

The first step for replacing the engine coolant Fan Motor includes disconnecting the negative Battery Cable for safety reasons to stop sparking then keeping hands and tools clear of the electric fan. Start by unmounting the Fan Shroud assembly from the vehicle and position the Fan Blade to prevent spinning. You should use ge-47827 socket (GE-47827) to reverse the Fan Motor drive plate motion against the Fan Blade arrow and then discard the blade. Set the Fan Motor along with its shroud on a wooden block before executing center punching procedures with a 6.35 mm (0.25 in) drill bit to remove the rivets then extract the Fan Motor from the shroud while cleaning away all debris. Install the new engine cooling Fan Motor onto the Fan Shroud by inserting bolts from its front side and securely tighten the cooling Fan Motor nuts to 6 n.m (53 lb in). Position the new Fan Blade hub on the Fan Motor drive plate when it has reached proper surface temperature of 49°c (120°F) maintained for at least 60 seconds. The ge-47827 socket (GE-47827) should be utilized to spin the Fan Motor drive plate toward the arrow on the Fan Blade until a connection is achieved before rotating the cooling Fan Blade to confirm proper positioning and reinstalling the Fan Shroud assembly on the vehicle.

Use the GE-47827 Socket (GE-47827) or a normal six-point socket.

Tape off all entry points to the cooling fan motor.
